When interviewed by police he admitted hearing them announce they were cops. This is why they charged him with murder, because he started the entire gun battle and the police would never have shot if he hadnt fired first. They dropped the charged against the bf because of public pressure. Also, if you read the background documents they were all - and I mean everyone - involved in the drug business and one of the main players was using Breonah to hold his money. Yet another Hands Up Dont Shoot BS story that almost one digs deep enough to see for what it is.
I am going to have to correct what I said. I went back and looked at the reports. The BF admits that they knocked. He says he asked it was and then they rammed the door down. The police say they knocked and announced themselves, then entered and returned fire when the BF shot at them.
There are transcripts of phone calls between Breonna's other boyfriend and his baby mamma, in jail, confirming he was the main target and that he had left money with B to hold for him.
I do agree that she did not deserve to die because she was not armed but this tragedy was caused by the lifestyle she chose and the stupid decisions of the guy she was with that night. It is not a racially motivated incident.
Why not just pull up in a bearcat, surround the house and call them out over PA? The officers can remain behind cover the whole time. Safer for everybody. I don't fault those 3 officers, but I do think there is a better way to do things going forward.

Well if he did hear them ID themselves as police before shooting, then it is his fault for shooting at cops

Clearly it wasn't and, who knows a there could have been some noise and, that caused him not to hear them.
